How to Make Your Food Last Longer
Believe it or not, there are plenty of amazing dishes you can make from frozen food items, and broccoli casserole is certainly one of them. Whether you make a classic version of the dish or choose to top it with crispy tater tots, there’s no denying that broccoli casserole is a recipe for all ages.
The best part about casseroles is that they’re easy to make and typically yield enough food for a few days, making meal prep a breeze.

It’s a no-frills dinner that takes less than one hour to make. If you’re cooking for a holiday gathering, it's also one of the best Thanksgiving side dishes you can make.
The best part about this recipe is that it’s great for leftovers. But before storing the dish for later, make sure you check out our guide for how long foods last in the fridge and freezer.
